1A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
1Sie top fisrasr akmisyela kasrkusrak, a sie kas toasr ac purakak kasrkusrak.
2The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouth of the fool spouts folly.
2Ke mwet lalmwetmet elos kaskas, mwet uh mwel etauk. A mwet lalfon elos filakunla kas lusrongten.
3The eyes of the LORD are in every place, observing the evil and the good.
3LEUM GOD El liye ma orek in acn nukewa; El suiya ma nukewa kut oru — finne wo ku koluk.
4A soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.
4Kas kulang mwe akkeye kom, a kas toasr ac mwe akmunasye kom.
5A fool rejects his father’s discipline, but whoever heeds correction is prudent.
5Ma lalfon se pa in pilesru kas in luti lun papa tomom; a lalmwetmet pa in porongo kas in kai lal.
6The house of the righteous has great treasure, but the income of the wicked is trouble.
6Mwet suwoswos elos karinganang kasrpalos, a mwet koluk elos sununtei kasrpalos, na ke pacl koluk tuku, elos kwacola.
7The lips of the wise spread knowledge, but not so the hearts of fools.
7Mwet lalmwetmet akyokye etauk, a mwet lalfon elos tia.

9The LORD detests the way of the wicked, but He loves those who pursue righteousness.
9LEUM GOD El srunga inkanek lun mwet koluk, a El lungse elos su oru ma suwohs.
10Discipline is harsh for him who leaves the path; he who hates correction will die.
10Kom fin oru ma koluk, kom ac sun kaiyuk upa; kom ac misa kom fin tia lela in aksuwosyeyuk kom.
11Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD— how much more the hearts of men!
11LEUM GOD El fin ku in etu ma nukewa ma oan in facl lun mwet misa, na kalem lah sie mwet el tia ku in okanla nunak lal liki God.
